By analyzing the largest compendium of 14,166 samples from normal and tumor tissues, Ge Gao’s team significantly expand the landscape of human long noncoding RNA with a high-quality atlas: RefLnc (Reference catalog of LncRNA, http://reflnc.gao-lab.org/). Considered the influence RefLnc has made in human lncRNA field，RefLnc has being awarded as China’s top ten bioinformatics database of Read more about RefLnc for China’s top ten bioinformatics database of 2019[…]

On November 8, 2019, the research group of Gao Ge, a researcher at the State Key Laboratory of Protein and Plant Gene Research at Peking University, published a research paper entitled “PlantRegMap: charting functional regulatory maps in plants” in the journal Nucleic Acids Research (https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkz1020). The study mapped the functional transcriptional regulation map of 63 Read more about PlantRegMap: charting functional regulatory maps in plants[…]

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are defined as non-coding transcripts longer than 200 nt (1,2). They have been demonstrated to conduct diverse functions in multiple biological and pathological processes (3). A high-quality and comprehensive lncRNA annotation is a cornerstone requirement of subsequent functional investigation. However, large discrepancies still exist in the current major annotations. By analyzing Read more about RefLnc: An expanded landscape of human long noncoding RNA[…]
